Maintenance and service

6.1

Maintenance intervals

The 330 PN requires periodic maintenance. The below time 
maintenance intervals should kept the unit operating for many 
years.

Every year

▶ Inspect inlet water filter screen ( 6.2)
▶ Inspect pilot assembly and flame ( 6.3)
▶ Inspect burner assembly ( 6.4)

Every 2 years

▶ Inspect heat exchanger fins for soot, debris or blockage. 

Clean if necessary (5.5)

▶ Lubricate and clean water valve ( 6.2)

Every 3 to 5 years

▶ Rebuild water valve ( 6.2)

▶ Clean pilot assembly and clean or replace orifice ( 6.3)

6.2

Water valve

The water valve is the main control that tells the heater to fire. 
If the periodic maintenance is neglected, more costly damage 
may occur over time.

Inspecting inlet water filter screen

Shut off the installer supplied cold water isolation valve to the 
heater. If one is not installed, install before proceeding. Open 
the nearest hot water tap to drain the plumbing lines. Position 
a bucket under the heater's water valve assembly to catch any 
water that may drain from the heater. Remove the filter 
retaining pin located at base of water valve (see Fig. 24). 
Remove the threaded bushing to access the cylindrical filter 
inside. Remove filter, clean with water and inspect for damage. 
If the filter is at all damaged, it should be replaced.

Lubricating the water valve

A more detailed instruction is available on our website at 
www.bosch-climate.us. Shut off the installer supplied cold 
water isolation valve to the heater. If one is not installed, install 
before proceeding. Open the nearest hot water tap to drain the 
plumbing lines. Position a bucket under the heater's water 
valve assembly to catch any water that may drain from the 
heater. Disconnect the inlet water pipe going to the back of the 
water valve. Disconnect the water pipe leading out of water 
valve to the heat exchanger. Do this by removing the retaining 
pin on water valve assembly and pulling the pipe free from the 
water valve. Loosen the two set screws at the bottom of the 
water valve where it connects to the gas valve. If the set screws 
are seized, STOP and call Bosch tech support before 
proceeding. Forcing and snapping seized set screws may cause 
irrevocable damage to the water valve and gas valve 
assemblies. Remove the water valve by pulling it to the right. 
Separate the two halves of the water valve by removing the five 
screws on the left side of the water valve. Apply lithium or 
faucet & valve grease to the pushrod and o-ring. (See Fig.  27). 
Inspect the venturi and clean if necessary. (see Fig  27).

Rebuilding the water valve

Several parts within the water valve should be replaced every 3 
to 5 years depending on water quality and usage. The parts list 
and instructions can be found on our website at www.bosch-
climate.us. Failure to rebuild the water valve can result in 
decreased performance or damage to the heater.

6.3

Pilot

Inspecting pilot

The pilot should burn with a clean sharp blue flame. The flame 
should fully engulf the tip of the thermocouple. If it does not, 
clean the pilot assembly per procedure below.

WARNING: 

▶ Failure to perform recommended 

maintenance may result in complete 
failure of the unit over time.
The warranty does not cover failures 
due to improper or insufficient 
maintenance.
